Abstract
An error identification method for identifying an error includes: securing a calibrator having three or more spheres on the table; measuring an initial position of the calibrator with a position measurement sensor tool; calculating a reference angle of each of the rotation axes for positioning the calibrator to a predetermined reference position using a measured value in the measuring; indexing each of the rotation axes individually to a plurality of indexed angles with respect to the reference angle and measuring a center position of a sphere of the calibrator secured on the table at each of the indexed angles with the position measurement sensor tool; and identifying a positioning error and a straightness error of the linear axis, a squareness error between the respective linear axes, and a position error and an inclination error of each of the rotation axes based on a measured value in the indexing.
